Today we received a message that the Brainshark presentations (similar to a PowerPont with audio) we create can now be viewed on mobile devices. This is huge for us. We use Brainshark presentations a lot to get information out quickly, especially to our sales teams. The problem has always been that the salses staff have to find time to view the brainshark presentations on their computers. The ability to now receive training via their mobile devices allows them to view the materials quicker and easier. This opens up a variety of additiona reasons we may use Brainsharks. Instead of creating a long communication message they have to read - we can now create a quick Brainshark they can play on their phones. This capability will make us reconsider why and when we use this tool.
I continue to be amazed at how much technology is out there that I don't know about and how quickly the stuff I do know changes to keep up.
I'm really amazed at the difference "going mobile" makes. I'm still getting used to even HAVING my iPod touch, but I could see if I was a person on the go, instead of someone at a desk all day, that it would be an essential piece of equipment.
